I picked up the PDF last night, but I have not had time to read it. I know that the conversion rules in IH are kind of lacking when it comes to importing classes to the system. I am interested in people’s thoughts on what it would take to balance a non-Iron Heroes class against an IH class...

That's cool, because it is the exact same thing that went through my mind.

Beyond what we have seen previewed, what new combat dynamics are introduced? What are the abilities (in a nutshell) of the non-previewed classes? Can you give us a summation of how the Arcanist / magic system works? What is really innovative and cool about the game that didn't make it into...

I thought we were looking at August 1 as the release date.

Perhaps somewhere in all of the rules design stuff in Mastering Iron Heroes there will be lots of info and examples on class abilities. I am also curious about how the creatures in the Iron Hero Bestiary will be significantly different from other monstrous adversaries.

...odds are, if Mike and Monty don't have plans on releasing a class building toolkit that I will retro-engineer one. I will then be happy to share my class decontructions / reconstructions with the community. I plan to use IH for a mythic earth campaign, so I need to have classes that...

Tolen Mar, I don't want to drop my IH characters into a D&D campaign and expect them to be comparably powered to D&D classes (it makes no sense to me that a IH character would forgo a magic sword if one was available). All I want is a set of guidelines to build new IH style classes to mirror...

Why...because the IH classes don't cover every cool thing that I want in my campaign world. While I like the sound of all of the IH classes, what if I want to also have AE Champions and Mageblades running around with D&D Ninja and Psions? I want the rules to be able to be molded to my...

I wonder if the token powered abilities and stunting in IH can simulate the cool parts of Exalted combat.

Conversion rules!?! That is even better than I had hoped. I was just thinking about how everyone was using the paladin's smite ability as an example of what is wrong with the "per day" mechanic, and imagining how sweet it would be to convert some of the core D&D classes to the IH system of...

It's too bad that Amazon won't do a guaranteed same day delivery on the release date like they did with preordered Harry Potter books.

I have to admit that I am really looking forward to this book. Probably more so than anything else that I have seen scheduled for release this year. I am hoping that it is flexible enough that I can add / remove elements from other d20 products without too much effort. The descriptions that I...

I may have missed a thread discussing this, but does anyone have the book yet? If you do, how good / bad is it?

<sarcasm>I have been jonesing for the delicious angst and social relevance of a game of live action Wraith.</sarcasm>

I thought that Eva was a big let down. It was all hyped up to me by a friend of mine to be some sort of deep and religiously symbolic story, but that certainly wasn't my experience. Most of the series was your average anime whiney, reluctant hero dreck, the rest was a ham-handed attempt to...

Yeah, it really is a shame that no one has resurrected it. If WOTC is dead set against licensing Al-Qadim out, some third party should create a "cloned" version of the setting. I think third party companies could make a real killing churning out d20 versions of some of TSR's old settings. I...

"Stick of pain, Lamont!!!"

I just watched the "Berserk" season 1 anime, and I have some questions for those people "in the know." I thought it was a great series, but I understand that the first season only covers about 1 - 12 issues of the manga. Does anyone know if there is another season of the anime in the works...

That is correct. She is riding side-saddle.

A Browning .50 cal round should punch right through the knights breastplate and the knight, and come out the backside leaving a fist size hole. At that range, no one should survive being shot by a .50 cal machine gun. You can play it off as being cinematic, but in my opinion, that is right up...
